There are certain types of cookies which simply can't be beaten. Spritz cookies is definitely one of those type of cookies. My family and I used to bake these just around Christmas time in large quantities for all of our different Christmas celebrations. I remember the long hours (it probably seemed a lot longer than it really was since young children usually exaggerate on things a bit:) of bustling around the kitchen with my family trying to get all of the cookies out of the oven and decorated. It always seemed like such a fun tradition, and on the years that my mom would even think about not making spritz cookies, I sure would protest. I simply loved the time spent with my family during the baking as much as I enjoyed baking the cookies and even eating them! Spritz cookies always seem so complicated to make, but if you have a nice sturdy spritz gun and a bit of time, they can be a great treat for the Christmas season! But while we are busy with so much baking and running around during this season, let us not forget what (or Who) this CHRISTmas season is about! Our love for baking, buying presents, and preparing for our celebrations this year should not interrupt our love for the One whom this season is all about! :) Happy baking, everyone!
